Staying in the Desert

Leisurely rise today departing 9.30am for tour of Junagarh Fort on our way to Jaisalmer, The Sun City.First group in the Fort, opens at 10am. Very interesting with most rooms original or restored, built in 1588 AD & residence to 20 rulers of Bikaner to 1902 AD. No enemy was ever able to conquer the fort. Beautiful features in the rooms, palaces & pavillions with many antiques & art. Full collection of weaponry.Later travelled through the Thar Desert, stopping at Red Rock Cafe for lunch. As I write this extremely bumpy slow road due to traffic & roadworks. Plenty of transport trucks even on a Sunday, & the inevitable wandering cows across the road.Few more hours across the Thar Desert to arrive at Jaisalkot, Jaisalmer by 6pm..
